Bart and Lisa ran it up to about 1 million dollars

but the poker site stole the funds BI style when they figured out that Lisa and Bart were not 18

there be lessons in these Simpsons

I plan on winning the lottery in 2013. Some of you may want to start making nice with me now before I decide it's too late to include you in my good fortune.

Fuck it makes me mad when someone does something incredibly stupid on Jeopardy. Dumb bitch.

Just watching Friday's episode and there are only two people going into Final Jeopardy because the other guy crapped out. So there are these two ladies and one has exactly twice the money of the other.

If you're not completely stupid, the wagering is the no-brainer of all-time - for both players. Chick who is leading bets zero. Obviously. She is guaranteed a win and all her money plus a chance to keep playing and win more. Chick who is trailing with exactly half her total bets everything. She knows the other chick has to bet 0 so she just needs to double up for a tie which is a win-win.

So on Friday, chick who was trailing did what she had to: got the correct answer and doubled her score to tie the leader.

Chick who was leading got the wrong answer. But who cares? She obviously bet zero. You don't get on Jeopardy by being some raging moron.

Fucking chick wagered 5K and lost.

Don't get me wrong, I'm glad she lost. I wish they could take away her previous winnings just on principle. I'd be really pissed if she pulled that shit and won. So the outcome is fine.

It just offends me when people do stuff that stupid.

That move is a derivative of "The Claven".

Plommer this Cheers episode's been on my mind since rj mentioned he'd win if all the categories were about geography.

Just had an odd and cheery thought. I was thinking about my music project and generally assessing where I stand. And I was thinking about what I want to do today and how that fits into the greater progression. Suddenly a little thought made me just a bit happier:

It is still last year.

Hmmm

Yap Mr. Bono!

Still time to build on your great works of 2012!

Yap!

I'm gonna leave 2012 playing golf and I'm gonna start 2013 playing golf.

Wally, if possibly I make it to FLA this October we can play a round of golf? I guess i could make it up there or maybe could you make it a little over a hour south of Tampa?

 

[wal66]

MrMonkey I will consider it an honor to play a round of golf with you and no problem coming Tampa-way to do so. Good chance if timing is right we could even get BGS to play a round with us.

I told MrsM the same thing saying I know BGS played with Wally so possible he could join in too! Probably have to go somewhere that rents clubs though!

 

[wal66]

I probably will have an extra set. I generally have 2-4 sets of clubs at any given point during the year. Well unless you are a lefty that is.

Righty it is!

Wally, I want to play golf. There's a chance I'll be in the Tampa area in March.

Of course, that would be miniature golf because my lack of coordination means that I can barely walk without falling over.

 

[MrMonkey]

Wally, only thought in your head right now should be if it means I can play with only one ..... then Teela it is and fuK MrM! Don't be stupid!
